�4 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD

CHAIRMAN’S LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) has had a very successful 2006 Financial Year. We are pleased with the Group’s financial performance and happy to report that a lot has been done to improve our operational and technical efficiency levels, which are measured using System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI), system minutes and Unplanned Outage Rates (UOR). This is proof of our commitment to our customers to provide service excellence.

As a leader and catalyst in the industry, TNB will continue to play a pivotal role in supplying power to all customer groups efficiently, reliably and competitively.

Financial Performance

Tenaga Nasional Berhad recorded a commendable set of results by focusing on service excellence and efficiency. Net profit for the Financial Year ended 31 August 2006 was reported at RM2.13 billion compared to RM1.28 billion for the corresponding period in FY 2005, an increase of 66 per cent. The Group’s total revenue for the period increased by 7.4 per cent to breach the RM20 billion mark and is mainly attributed to the increase in electricity demand growth and the implementation of the new tariff rate, effective from 1 June 2006. As a result of our on-going efficiency drive and the various Company-wide Initiatives to create value and savings, the Group reported a lower 4.4 per cent increase in operating expenses. Thanks to the lower increase in operating expenses, the Group’s EBITDA (EBIT before depreciation and amortisation) margin stood at 35.7 per cent and the EBIT (earnings before interest, taxes and minority interest) margin at 19.4 per cent in FY 2006 compared to 31.2 per cent and 16.5 per cent respectively in FY 2005.

Based on this, the Board has proposed to pay out a final gross dividend of 12.0 sen per ordinary share and tax-exempt dividend of 2.0 sen per ordinary share to TNB’s shareholders.

Industry Development

We thank the Government for sanctioning the first tariff rebalancing exercise in nine years, effective 1 June 2006. The revised tariffs are a more accurate reflection of our costs for producing and distributing electricity.

As a socially responsible body, we took great pains to ensure that domestic customers in the lower-income groups were not affected by the tariff rebalancing. In addition, we are proud that our tariffs are still among the lowest in the Asia-Pacific region. With the new tariff in place, TNB is in a better position to carry out the necessary maintenance and upgrading of existing electricity supply infrastructure as well as undertake new supply projects in order to ensure reliable and quality electricity supply to our customers.

The new tariff structure was also designed to encourage efficient use of electricity. In 2006, TNB, with the cooperation of the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications, embarked on an energy efficiency advertising campaign aimed at encouraging and educating the public on how to use electricity wisely and efficiently. We are happy this community service campaign has been well received by the public.

Also, in support of the Government’s target of 350 MW capacity from Renewable Energy (RE) sources under the Ninth Malaysia Plan, TNB will continue to assist and initiate negotiations with Small Renewable Energy Power (SREP) developers on technical feasibility and project development. As at the end of FY 2006, TNB has signed six Renewable Energy Power Purchase Agreements (REPPA) with a total capacity of 36.2 MW. This figure is expected to rise in FY 2007 with the signing of four more RE agreements with a total capacity of 9.8 MW and the conclusion of negotiations for two more projects with a total capacity of 12 MW.

Customer Focus

Our customers continue to be our priority. TNB has made great strides over the past two years in transforming our Company into an organisation that is more customer-oriented. In 2006, we implemented several customer-driven measures such as the use of the telephone and SMS to expedite our responses to customer feedback and complaints via our dedicated CareLine 15454. We also introduced the Mobile Money Wallet SMS service, which makes the payment of bills much more convenient for our customers.

CHAIRMAN’S LETTER TO SHAREHOLDERS

People are the core of customer service. It is therefore important that our staff are well prepared, ready and willing to embrace the transformation of our work culture. Our key challenges are to ensure our front-liners are customer-friendly, customer-oriented, knowledgeable and technically skilled. We aim to select and train the right people with the right qualities to communicate efficiently and effectively with our customers in order to guarantee a smooth and satisfying customer experience.

Corporate Governance

Good corporate governance remains a key priority in TNB. This has been achieved in TNB through the development of a strong framework, which emphasises on continuous improvement and the development of a dynamic, productive and focused workforce.

The Company has undertaken continuous review efforts to improve corporate governance through the application of the principles of integrity, transparency and accountability in company processes through the Process Standardisation and Improvement (PSI) Programme.

The Company recognises that the key determinant in building a trusted and reliable organisation is the way our employees conduct themselves in their workplace and in the delivery of services to our customers. Thus, early in the year under review, we launched our Integrity and Ethics Plan. We have also successfully identified our talent pool and competency build-up under the Succession Planning and Talent Pool Development Programme. We are pleased to announce that TNB has successfully been accredited the MS ISO 9001:2000 during the year under review.

The Government Linked Companies (GLCs) Transformation Programme is also high on our agenda. We have embarked on several initiatives as set out in the Guidelines to Enhance Board Effectiveness published in the Green Book and on best practices for improving the procurement process as published in the Red Book. To spur performance, we have also announced our headline Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the year under review.

The Board of Directors will continue to recognise and encourage good corporate culture and practices throughout the Group for better returns and in the interest of our shareholders and stakeholders.

Safety Excellence

As a responsible utility company, ensuring a safe working environment and excellent occupational health is a continuous effort and takes precedence in TNB. Our Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) policy pledges a strong commitment for the provision of a safe and healthy working environment for our employees. We are actively instilling a proactive OSH work culture in all our employees through promotion and education.

With the implementation of the TNB Safety Excellence Management System (SEMS), the Company has progressed tremendously in OSH practices. Recognising that good OSH management is central towards creating a safe environment, management has also approved an enhanced OSH organisation structure in TNB. In our endeavour to be among the best utility companies in the world, TNB has also adopted the world-class OSH standard and management system.

Corporate Social Responsibility

TNB is committed to corporate social responsibility (CSR). Our CSR policy is founded on philanthropy in key areas such as education, sports, the environment and helping the underprivileged.

We are pleased the Government has singled out our CSR policy as the basis of the pilot study on CSR for the Silver Book initiative, which was launched by the Government in September 2006 as part of the GLCs Transformation Programme.

During FY 2006, TNB implemented 100 Rural Electrification Projects costing RM15.5 million, which provide electricity supply to 1,621 households in rural areas throughout the country. As part of our social obligation, TNB also continues to carry out operations and maintenance activities for our

customers located in remote rural areas, including those accessible only via river or sea routes. We are also responsible for maintenance and operations of 12 and 24-hour diesel stations in rural areas as well as offshore islands at a subsidised rate totalling RM7 million a year. As at August 2006, TNB has also carried out, among others, the installation of about 36,000 streetlight units in rural areas.

Our sponsored educational programmes during the year under review included the UPSR Tutorials at Sekolah Kebangsaan Bebar, Pekan, Pahang, a 3-year project to supply the New Straits Times to 12 selected schools and a 6-month project to supply Utusan Melayu Mingguan Jawi to 20 schools.

We also assisted the Malaysian Association of the Blind in its fund-raising activities, while TNB workers gave generously in support of the Humanitarian Fund for the Pakistan Earthquake Victims. This year and for the fifth year running, we have also been actively promoting patriotism by sponsoring the ”Patriotic Poetry Festival” jointly with Biro Tatanegara in conjunction with the country’s Merdeka celebrations.

As an energy company for the future, TNB’s commitment to the protection and preservation of the environment has also encouraged us to undertake long-term funding and rehabilitation of a very precious natural resource i.e. the firefly colony of Kuala Selangor. This is a cause close to our hearts because the firefly which generates light is symbolic of TNB in our role as the main provider of electricity in the country. The firefly is also a major tourist attraction but a very fragile one. With our help, we are hopeful that the firefly colony will be maintained and preserved for the future benefit and enjoyment of locals and tourists alike.

Prospects and Challenges

Moving forward, the electricity industry will continue to grow at a projected rate of 5 - 5.5 per cent up to year 2010. In line with our pivotal role to Power the Nation’s Progress, TNB will continue to be responsive to national economic growth. Therefore, it is critical for TNB to remain healthy and sustainable.

One of TNB’s greatest challenges will be our readiness to move with the times and face an environment that is more liberalised and competitive, both in the domestic and international markets. Other challenges include coping with volatility and increases in fuel costs, the imminent reduction of fuel subsidies, the need for diversification and rising customer expectations. Quality of supply is another major concern. Certainly with growing sophistication and better quality of life, customers expect first-class quality of supply at all times.

Simultaneously, as we move forward, we believe TNB has to be prepared to pay market prices for all resources such as fuel. This makes it imperative for us to improve our efficiency in terms of generation, transmission, distribution and service. It is also important that all staff of TNB face these challenges with an open mind and a willingness to anticipate, adopt and embrace the changes necessary to ensure that TNB remains strong, effective and competitive as a company.

TNB is actively pursuing an energy diversification strategy that supports Government policy. We are also diligently exploring opportunities for tapping hydropower in Sarawak and commercialising bio-fuel and renewable energy sources across Malaysia.

CHAIRMAN’S LETTER

TO SHAREHOLDERS

Page 18: Annual Report TNB 2006

�8 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD

We also recognise that in a globalised environment it is no longer sufficient to operate in single markets. Diversification abroad will help TNB spread its business risks and create new sources of income. In this regard, TNB intends to leverage our repair and maintenance skills under TNB Repair and Maintenance Sdn. Bhd. (REMACO) to penetrate promising markets abroad, especially in the emerging markets of the Middle East and Asia.

Meanwhile, we welcome the Government’s initiatives to create a more efficient electricity supply industry and believe that further restructuring will take place in the coming years. The Government intends to reduce the reserve margin from the current 40 per cent to about 20 per cent, which is in line with our plan and will help our core generation business become more efficient and reduce wastage.

We also look forward to the outcome of the on-going Government-initiated discussions with the Independent Power Producers (IPPs) and hope that it would be fair and provide a win-win solution for all parties in addressing the imbalances in the industry and the future role of the IPPs. The intended outcome must benefit the customers as well as the industry.

Awards and Achievements

During the year 2006, TNB was the proud recipient of several national and international awards and achievements in recognition of our status as a caring and responsible organisation and our endeavour towards excellence.

The TNB Workers Union received the Exemplary Private Sector Union award, while TNB was recognised as a Caring Employer in the major industry category by the Ministry of Human Resources, in conjunction with Labour Day 2006. TNB was also awarded the Penjana Perpaduan or Generator of Unity title during the 2006 national-level Unity Month Celebrations. This is in recognition of our efforts to encourage the spirit of muhibbah within our organisation.

At the regional level, TNB did the country proud by being listed as one of the biggest utility companies in ASEAN on the FTSE/ASEAN 40 Index. Our market capitalisation of USD9.2 billion (RM33.12 billion) places us in the ASEAN top ten, alongside other major Malaysian companies like Maybank, Maxis, Resorts World, Astro and YTL.

TNB also recorded a world-class achievement by being the only Malaysian company to have made it to the top 50 energy companies in Asia in the annual Platts Top 250 Global Energy Company rankings, which recognise outstanding financial performance by the world’s leading energy businesses. TNB ranked 42nd among the top 57 energy companies in Asia and 168th among the top 250 Energy Companies globally. This recognition is significant as it places TNB in the same league with the world’s largest and most successful energy producers.

Acknowledgements

TNB owes its success to many quarters. We thank the Government, particularly the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications and the Energy Commission, for their understanding and support of our mission and objectives to continue improving our performance and creating value for all our stakeholders, especially our customers and investors.

I would also like to thank TNB’s management for their excellent work under the leadership of the President and CEO Dato’ Sri Che Khalib bin Mohamad Noh. Credit must also go to all TNB employees for having achieved excellent efficiencies and cost savings and for their dedication in embracing a work culture of discipline, dedication and integrity aimed at delivering excellent and reliable service to all our customers.

As we move forward, we are counting on the commitment and full participation of all our staff to ensure TNB achieves its Vision. Most importantly, we recognise that we would not be able to achieve these goals without the support, understanding and patronage of our loyal customers. Thank you for allowing us to power you.

Back in FY 2004, Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) declared that it intended to become the best corporation in Malaysia by a self-imposed deadline of August 2007.

We aimed to do this via focusing on the T7 strategy for transformation and the inculcation of an effective goal-oriented culture underpinned by our core values of Integrity, Customer Focus, Business Excellence and being Caring. A key element of our transformation rests on our extensive “housekeeping” initiatives, which include maximising value by recovering long-term outstanding debt from delinquent customers, curbing electricity theft and addressing the high costs of fuel. Simultaneously, we implemented an aggressive cost-saving exercise to derive value from sustainable improvements. Furthermore, we are driven by a set of Company-wide Initiatives and Headline Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) which contain highly aggressive targets designed to push us to the forefront of regional and global utilities.

Towards Service Excellence

Throughout the year under review, TNB focused its efforts on several key initiatives targeted to raise the reliability and quality of service in our on-going quest to achieve service excellence.

By improving the quality of our management and operational processes, we can raise our efficiency and directly improve service excellence. Notably, for the period under review, we focused on achieving the MS ISO 9001:2000 certification through the implementation of the Process Standardisation and Improvement (PSI) Programme, an initiative that will inculcate the culture of quality among our people. Commendably, TNB as a whole achieved ISO certification on 10 February 2006, which we believe will drive further improvements in efficiency and thus service excellence forward.

Being prepared for emergencies also enables TNB to anticipate and pre-empt crises to ensure supply reliability, which is central to service excellence. During the year, we reviewed the Emergency Response Plan and defined specific procedures and provided dedicated infrastructure for emergency responses to

PRESIDENT/CEO’S REVIEW

During FY 2006, we have driven our journey in excellence further by continuing to pursue the strategies defined in our 20-Year Strategic Plan.

Value creation through savings is still very much a strategic imperative. Our value creation drive continued in FY 2006, and TNB has achieved tremendous value creation of RM893.7 million, or 49 per cent in excess of our targets, from company-wide initiatives such as back-billing, reduction in general expenses, value creation from the sale of non-operational strategically-located landbanks, the turnaround of the Sabah Electricity Sdn. Bhd. (SESB), recovery from delinquent accounts, and the improved management of administration costs.

Simultaneously, the first 5-year phase of our 20-year strategic plan revolves around achieving the milestone of “Service Excellence” and we have embarked on various initiatives for excellence, particularly in addressing the key issues of electricity supply and delivery quality, quality certification through process standardisation and improvement, and risk management. I am happy to note that operational and technical efficiency levels which are measured using System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI), System Minutes and Unplanned Outage Rates (UOR) have improved significantly, which is proof of our on-going commitment to our customers to provide service excellence.

ensure uninterrupted supply of electricity, which plays a major role in national security. This includes the establishment of the National Operations Room, which will be the base for centralised crisis management for better control and positive handling of crisis situations.

In terms of our core businesses and operations, TNB continued to work diligently to ensure a secure, reliable and uninterrupted power supply which is critical to delivering service excellence. Significantly, strategic planning and planting up of generation capacity is a key part of the supply reliability equation and integral to optimising the reserve margin. During the year under review, the Government called for the optimisation of the country’s reserve margin in order to conserve resources and create efficiency. In support of the Government’s call, TNB will continue to work closely with the “Jawatankuasa Perancangan dan Perlaksanaan Pembekalan Elektrik dan Tarif” (JPPPET) to implement generation planning that optimises our reserve margin. Further down the electricity supply chain, we continued to invest substantially in ensuring the robustness of the system through building in backups and emphasising maintenance in order to be able to withstand system disruptions. These initiatives are complemented by our continuous efforts to improve system reliability and efficiency through ongoing initiatives like the Central Area Reinforcement (CAR) Project, the Supervisory Control and Distribution Automation (SCADA) System which is being extended nationwide, the Distribution Automation (DA) Project and the upgrading of the National Load Despatch Centre (NLDC).

Elsewhere, TNB has made great strides in procurement efficiencies, which have in turn increased the efficiency and transparency of the Company’s supply chain, and enable us to deliver our end-products and services more effectively and efficiently. A great deal of attention was paid

PRESIDENT/CEO’S REVIEW

to procurement activities because of their potential to contribute to significant cost savings. During the year under review, TNB worked to improve the tender and delivery system to comply with the best practices outlined in the GLCs Red Book. TNB also promoted and implemented the National Procurement Policy, emphasising the Entrepreneur Development Programme in line with the objectives of the National Economic Policy (NEP). Streamlining the procurement process has improved internal and external vendor culture, and demonstrates TNB’s commitment to build a stronger entrepreneurial culture among Malaysians. In line with its corporate social responsibility strategy, TNB instituted the Vendor Culture as part of the Vendor-Entrepreneur Programme that is intended to spur improvements in quality, and help vendors brand themselves. Improving and controlling vendor quality in compliance to certain standards will ultimately enhance the quality of TNB’s end-products and services, enabling us to raise service excellence.

Delivering Customer Satisfaction

Delivering customer satisfaction continues to be a strategic imperative for TNB as it strives to evolve into a customer-oriented and satisfaction-driven company. Our new customer-pleasing strategies in FY 2006 included upgrading the interface and communications between the customer and TNB frontliners, and expediting billing and payment processes.

Apart from revamping our Customer Call Management Centre (CMC), SMS-based initiatives were a key theme in FY 2006. Customers can now lodge complaints about power interruptions through SMS TNB CareLine 15454, which will speed up response time and allow for better management of calls to TNB’s 24-hour call-management centres.

precision control for safe and reliable supply

Page 23: Annual Report TNB 2006

ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD 2�

In terms of payment and billing, customers can now settle their electricity bills with ease and convenience through SMS via the Mobile Money Wallet (MM Wallet), which is an alternative channel for TNB bill payments. Indeed, customers will not forget to pay their bills, since the MM Wallet will remind them periodically about payment deadlines.

In future, customers will enjoy even more accurate meter readings and billings with TNB’s proposed RM50 million investment in automatic meter reading (AMR) units from FY 2007 – 2009. In future, AMR will facilitate the billing process for customers, making it more timely and efficient. In turn, AMR will benefit TNB by reducing meter reading and meter maintenance costs. Apart from these initiatives, TNB continued to maintain open communication channels with major stakeholders – such as the Quarterly Forum of the Electricity Consultative Panel - in order to gather feedback, communicate developments in energy issues and build better relationships. Throughout the year under review, TNB held frequent dialogues with stakeholders such as the Energy Commission, the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications and the Malaysian Industrial Development Authority (MIDA) as well as with industry representatives such as FOMCA, FMM and the Real Estate and Housing Development Agency (REHDA). TNB made further strides in raising customer service benchmarks when it became the first utility to sign a custom-designed Service Level Agreement with REHDA which clearly delineates the obligations of both parties.

TNB also maintained its focus on delivering reliable power supply through best practices such as reducing planned outages and system disruption. The SAIDI measure (a key measure of supply reliability) has improved tremendously to 101.6 minutes for FY 2006, exceeding the target of 133 minutes. TNB has also improved its UOR, which was reduced to 4.7 per cent for FY 2006 against the target of 5.0 per cent.

Improving Financial Performance

While TNB has been making valiant efforts to create efficiencies and savings to put its finances in order, TNB’s financial sustainability going forward has also been reassured by the recent approval of the tariff review by the Government. We thank the Government for the approved review which is in line with the Government’s strategy to enable TNB to continue providing a reliable supply of electricity to all Malaysians. Among other things, the new tariff structure will improve TNB’s cashflow and enable TNB to meet rising costs and re-invest to upgrade aging supply equipment.

The tariff review has been designed to ensure that the lower income group or lifeline consumers are not financially burdened by increases in energy costs. At the same time, TNB is maintaining the Special Industrial Tariff for those who qualify as well as the 10 per cent discount for Government schools, Government institutions of higher learning, welfare homes and places of worship. TNB has also introduced a Special Agriculture Tariff to control the costs of basic food products.

Reducing non-technical losses is a core strategy for TNB under its 20-Year Strategic Masterplan, and we made intensive efforts to curb power thefts during the year under review, since power theft is a major contributor to the non-technical losses suffered by TNB. TNB took a more aggressive approach to curbing power theft with the official launch of the Special Engagement Against Losses (SEAL) team in FY 2005. The SEAL team’s main activities centre on minimising non-technical losses from power theft by conducting physical checks at meters. To increase effectiveness, the SEAL team has been beefed up with more technicians as well the procurement of new equipment and transportation to pursue suspected cases of power theft.

Debt recovery has also been a key element in TNB’s on-going housekeeping programme. I am pleased to report that our debt recovery efforts have been highly successful. Indeed, we have come to an amicable resolution with our debtors and secured settlement for all outstanding delinquent accounts. As of October 2006, we collected RM166.7 million in debts, exceeding the earlier target of RM130 million.

TNB has also expanded the e-CIBS system to tag high-risk customers for better security against power theft. Using e-CIBS produces accurate analysis reports that can identify patterns of repeated power theft. In the year under review, we also introduced the RM20 million Remote Meter Reading project which has benefited 89 per cent of our 1400 Large Power Customers in the Klang Valley to date. TNB is also fixing Expanded Metal Protection Doors (EMPD) and Secure Meter Boxes in other tangible initiatives to reduce power theft.

Building Capacity and Improving Performance Environment

TNB’s human resource development focus is geared towards attaining our company-wide performance goals in an increasingly competitive environment while leveraging technology to improve personal and professional development.

Throughout the Financial Year under review, the major element emphasised was the need to cope with change, and to accept and manage change for maximum productivity and optimum output through change management programmes. The need to adapt from traditional work practices to methods and mindsets that were more aligned to achieving high performance was constantly stressed, in order to equip personnel with the skills to cope in an increasingly competitive environment.

To help achieve this positive change, TNB is investing RM60 – 70 million annually in targeted or customised training to improve our people’s skills, knowledge and competencies. At the same time, TNB has implemented individual and organisational KPIs as targets to drive performance and accountability at all levels of the Company, and as benchmarks to measure performance.

As part of this organisational culture change, a rewards-based system was introduced to differentiate between high performers and non-performers. Promotions were also based on performance, as were share options, with remuneration shifting to emphasise this method of reward.

Like other forward-looking organisations, TNB needs to groom new leaders who will be able to achieve the organisation’s long-term objectives. To achieve this, succession planning has been developed and is scheduled for implementation in FY 2007. We have identified 240 potential leaders, based on resilience and adaptability as the main criteria.

TNB’s human resource development also focused on capacity building, which is crucial in the light of our 2010 target of marketing our services and expertise, such as repair and maintenance services. TNB is preparing to start selling its services abroad, seizing business opportunities as they arise. Therefore, the current focus is on building up a skilled staff base that will be able to meet this demand without compromising the quality and support of its core services as required by the local market. Non-executives and engineers are embarking on specialist career paths in preparation for 2010 while TNB develops retention strategies to ensure that it retains the talent it has trained.

PRESIDENT/CEO’S REVIEW

Page 25: Annual Report TNB 2006

ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD 25

Striking a balance between driving company performance and managing staff welfare is never easy, particularly in a highly competitive business environment. Since our people are our prime asset, management makes efforts to reach out and gather their feedback in order to improve the working environment. During the year under review, I have met face-to-face with staff through different platforms, such as the middle managers’ forums, divisional conferences, and meeting the staff sessions, in order to promote open communications.

At the same time, TNB is committed to curbing abuses to enhance the efficiency and transparency of our system and operations while safeguarding staff welfare. We are delighted that our human resource development programmes and efforts to improve the performance environment have earned prestigious recognition. TNB was recognised as a Caring Employer in the major industry category by the Ministry of Human Resources in conjunction with Labour Day 2006.

Share Price Performance

During the year under review, TNB’s share price experienced the greatest activity subsequent to the announcement of the tariff rebalancing on 24 May 2006. On the day following the announcement, TNB’s share price leaped to RM9.50 early in the day and closed at RM9.15. A total volume of 33.56 million TNB shares were traded, which represented 18.7 per cent of the total volume traded on the KLCI on that day. For the period from January to April 2006, the monthly volume of trading in TNB shares ranged from 2.3 per cent to 3.8 per cent of the total monthly trading volume on Bursa Malaysia.

Feedback from major investment houses showed that there was 10 times more buying than selling

Productivity Improved by �.7� times : Customers/Employee

Productivity Improved by � times : GWh/Employee

of TNB shares. While research houses and analysts rerated the stock positively, they believed the slow rise of TNB to be positive with potential upside still to be tapped.

TNB’s foreign shareholding too has climbed from a low for the year of 9.68 per cent in December 2005 to 14.30 per cent and 16.80 per cent in August and September 2006 respectively.

The tariff review was also a factor behind TNB’s rerating by credit rating agencies. Fitch Ratings upgraded TNB’s long-term foreign and local currency debt rating from BBB- to BBB in May 2006 while short-term foreign and local currency debt ratings were affirmed at F3. The outlook on all ratings remains stable.

The Way Forward

Scaling up the economic value chain will be a priority for TNB in the years to come, in line with the Government’s call to all companies to expand and strengthen their capabilities and capacity in order to compete regionally and globally.

To achieve this, TNB is exploring new sources of growth by leveraging on our existing strengths, guided by our 20-Year Strategic Plan. For instance, I can share that we intend to initiate new ventures abroad by exporting our expertise and capacity in repair and maintenance services through TNB Repair and Maintenance Sdn. Bhd. (REMACO), for starters. We have also decided to turn our Connaught Bridge facility into the “Regional O&M/R&M Hub”. TNB is also actively exploring opportunities for selling our technical expertise and perhaps even expanding via joint-ventures into the emerging markets of Yemen, Egypt, the Philippines and Indonesia.

Given our ambition to go regional and international, it has made sense for TNB to play a more active role in thought leadership and regional cooperation at energy forums. We have stepped up our involvement in the Heads of ASEAN Power Utilities and Authorities (HAPUA) in FY 2006. Most recently, we openly placed our support strongly behind the development of an ASEAN power grid at the 22nd HAPUA council meeting in May 2006. We believe this grid will provide the necessary interconnectivity for the regional mobilisation of electricity sales and optimise the development of energy resources in the region.

Concurrent with our outward-looking orientation, we will also continue to focus on becoming a more efficient and effective organisation in all aspects: operations, strategy, finance, customer value, risk management, etc. Cushioning our existing business and markets will be even more necessary as the business landscape evolves to become more competitive and liberalised. Based on thorough market and trend analysis, TNB has moved to become more efficient and effective over the past few years.

Nevertheless, the task of escalating productivity is a continuous effort. We have to be prepared and alert to change, and embrace change, in order to defend our market leadership in our chosen businesses and to sustain and add stakeholder value. We must continue to put our shoulders to the wheel in order to achieve greater efficiency and economic value-add annually, in the interests of our stakeholders.

Acknowledgements

Throughout our journey to excellence, TNB has enjoyed tremendous support from all our stakeholders who have encouraged us to work creatively and industriously to achieve our paradigm goal of becoming Malaysia’s best company by 2007.

In particular, we must thank the Ministry of Energy, Water and Communications, the Energy Commission and the Putrajaya Committee on GLC High Performance for their untiring work in creating a more efficient and competitive environment through their strategic imperatives. We welcome such moves as the renegotiations of Supplementary Power Purchase Agreements which will bring Malaysia’s power sector on par with developed and highly efficient markets elsewhere.

Further, we will continue to focus on ways to deliver customer satisfaction through our product and service innovations. TNB is nothing without its customers. We thank our loyal customers for their ongoing support and patronage and pledge to work more diligently in future to deliver excellence in service quality and customer service.

I must also thank the Board of Directors of TNB, who have helped shape, guide and support TNB’s vision of a paradigm shift. The Board’s wisdom in adopting the GLC Green Book for Enhancing Board Effectiveness and its active participation in Board Breakout Sessions has certainly made it more efficient, especially in terms of governance and oversight. Indeed, the Board’s support of positive changes in the management and operations of TNB has helped us make it to the top 50 energy companies in Asia in the annual Platts Top 250 Global Energy Company rankings. This is a prestigious third-party validation of our stellar performance and improvement over the past three years, and testimony to our drive to create shareholder value for investors.

Of course, such an outstanding performance could not have been achieved without the commitment and backing of TNB’s main asset, its people.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Good corporate governance remains a key priority in Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), and has been achieved through building a strong framework for effective governance which is analogous to the process of continuous improvement. Combined with the strong oversight and vigilant monitoring of the Company’s Board of Directors, this stringent environment produces a dynamic, productive and focused workforce. The Board recognises and continuously encourages good corporate culture as this will directly benefit the shareholders and stakeholders whilst safeguarding their interests.

The Government Linked Companies Transformation Programme is also high on the agenda to enhance corporate governance. TNB has embarked on several initiatives as set out in the Guidelines to Enhance Board Effectiveness which are published in the Green Book. TNB has also implemented best practices for improving the procurement process according to the Red Book; these best practices provide transparency and efficiency which can potentially result in significant savings and lead to high-quality services through the procurement of quality products.

The Company undertakes continuous review efforts through a structured Process Standardisation and Improvement (PSI) Programme to improve and update its business processes and systems. At the same time, the PSI programme emphasises the improvement of corporate governance through the application of the principles of integrity, transparency and accountability in company processes. During the Financial Year under review, the company has successfully been accredited to MS ISO 9001:2000.

The Company has also established a Succession Planning and Talent Pool Development Programme that has successfully identified individuals for the Company’s talent pool and includes the preparation of individual development plans to build up competency.

A key determinant in building a trusted and reliable organisation of high standing is the manner in which its employees conduct themselves in their work and the delivery of services to its customers. In recognition of this, the Company during the year, launched the Integrity and Ethics Plan of TNB for company-wide application.

To spur performance, TNB announced its Headline Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for the Financial Year under review. The transparency of these set targets or aspirations is aligned with the Company’s strategy to be accountable for its performance and practices in the interests of good corporate governance and investor confidence. Shareholders can evaluate the actual performance of the Company against the Headline KPIs objectively.

The Board of Directors remains committed to improving corporate governance practices to ensure the highest standards of corporate practices through the Group for better returns and in the interest of shareholders. The Board is pleased to report to the shareholders on the manner in which the Company has strengthened its application of the principles of corporate governance and adopted the corporate governance best practices laid down in the Malaysian Code on Corporate Governance (the Code) and other globally-recognised standards.

(A) THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board, individually and collectively as a team, recognises its responsibility in governing, guiding and monitoring the direction of the Company with the ultimate objective of enhancing long-term sustainable value creation aligned with the interests of shareholders, while taking into account the interests of other stakeholders. The Board is committed to adopting good corporate governance practices as part of their continuing obligations, explicitly assuming the six principal responsibilities outlined in the Code, and operating within a set of governance parameters as set out below:

Composition of the Board

The current Board of Directors of TNB is composed of eight members comprising one Non-Executive Chairman, one Executive Director, six Non-Executive Directors and in addition, two Alternate Directors. Collectively, the Board members are from the diverse backgrounds of business, finance, law, engineering, management and public administration, and provide considerable profundity of knowledge, expertise and experience to the Board of TNB. The Board is of the opinion that each of its members has the knowledge, aptitude and experience to perform the functions required of a director of a listed company. A brief profile of each Director is set out on pages 54 to 60 of this Annual Report.

Process of Appointment to the Board

Appointment to the Board of TNB is made either by the Special Shareholder pursuant to Article 5(2) of the Company’s Articles of Association or by the Board of Directors pursuant to Article 133 of the Company’s Articles of Association.

The Board Nomination & Remuneration Committee (BNRC) scrutinises the sourcing and nomination of suitable candidates for appointment as a Director in TNB and its subsidiary companies before making recommendations to the Board for approval. This Committee will ensure the selection of Board members with the right experience, skill and expertise, thus strengthening the composition of the Board and contributing significantly to the effectiveness of the Board.

Roles and Responsibilities

The Board has adopted the following six primary responsibilities laid out in the Code, which facilitate the discharge of the Board’s responsibilities:

(i) Reviewing and adopting a strategic plan for the Company;(ii) Overseeing the conduct of the Company’s business;(iii) Identifying principal risks and implementing appropriate risk management systems;(iv) Implementing succession planning;(v) Maintaining effective communication with shareholders and investors; and(vi) Reviewing the adequacy and integrity of the Company’s internal control systems.

ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD ��

The roles and responsibilities of the Chairman of the Board and the President/Chief Executive Officer are clearly defined and separated. The Chairman is responsible for the conduct of the Board and ensures that Board discussions are conducted in such a way that all views are taken into account, so that no individual Director or small group of Directors dominates proceedings. The Chairman is also responsible for ensuring Board effectiveness as well as representing the Board to the Shareholders. The Chief Executive Officer has the general responsibility for running the business on a day-to-day basis, thus ensuring a balance of power and authority so as to provide a safeguard against the exercise of unfettered powers in decision-making.

Accountability is part and parcel of governance in TNB. Whilst the Board is accountable to the shareholders, the Management is accountable to the Board. The Board ensures that the Management acts in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders by working to enhance the Company’s performance.

There is a clear division of responsibility between the Board and the Management. The President/Chief Executive Officer is supported by his management team through committees, namely the Group Executive Council, Group Executive Management Committee, Group Management Tender Committee and the Energy Supply Committee. These committees are responsible for the implementation of Board resolutions, and hold overall responsibilities for the day-to-day operations of the Group’s business and operational efficiency.

Operation of the Board

The Board has entrusted certain responsibilities to Board Committees, which operate within clearly defined written terms of references. There are five Board Committees to assist the Board, and the Committees deliberate issues on a broad and in-depth basis before putting up any recommendation to the Board.

The Board Finance and Investment Committee has for the year under review resumed its function to discuss and review the annual budget proposals by the Management which include Capital Expenditure on new projects or investments before final approval by the Board.

The proceedings of and resolutions passed at each Board and Board Committee meetings are minuted and kept in the statutory register at the registered office of the Company. In the event of potential conflict of interest, the Directors in such a position will make a declaration to that effect as soon as practicable.

Supply of Information to the Board

The Board and its Committees have full and unrestricted access to all information within TNB pertaining to the Group’s business and affairs.

The Board is provided with the agenda for every Board meeting, together with comprehensive management reports which include proposal analysis, risk evaluation and supporting documents in advance for the Board’s examination. Before decisions are made, consideration is given to the adequacy of information available to the Board and, if necessary, decisions are deferred if further information is required.

All Directors have the right and duty to make further enquiries where they consider necessary. In most instances, senior management of the Company as well as external advisors are invited to be in attendance at Board meetings to provide insight and to furnish clarification on issues that may be raised by the Board. Whether as a full board or in their individual capacities, Directors are also at liberty to take independent professional advice on any matter connected with the discharge of their responsibilities as they may deem necessary and appropriate.

The Board is also notified of any corporate announcement made to Bursa Malaysia.

Directors also have full and unrestricted access to the services of the Company Secretary who undertakes the responsibility of an advisor in respect of compliance issues and ensures that the Board complies with any statutory and regulatory requirements pertaining to Directors’ duties and responsibilities, Board meeting procedures and all applicable rules and regulations.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Effectiveness

The present composition, size, modus operandi, and strength of relationship with the Management and functional Board Committees contribute to an effective Board. Apart from the convening of Board meetings on a frequent basis, deliberation and discussions at a Board meeting are conducted in a comprehensive and in-depth manner before arriving at any decision recommended by the Management.

A Board and Management interactive session known internally as the Board and Management Break Out Session is held twice a year. Each session provides the Board with an additional formal platform outside the boardroom and gives it an opportunity to scrutinise the performance, business plan and budget of the Company in greater detail, thus enabling the Board to chart the strategic direction for the Company and to provide effective control by linking the business plan to the KPIs.

Board Balance and Independence

The requirement of the Code for board balance is fulfilled with the Independent Directors forming one-third of the Board. The classification for independence is in accordance with paragraph 1.01 (Definition and Interpretations) of the Bursa Malaysia Listing Requirements.

The present Board consists of three Independent Non-Executive Directors, namely Y. Bhg. Tan Sri Dato’ Lau Yin Pin, Y. Bhg. Tan Sri Dato’ Hari Narayanan a/l Govindasamy and Y. Bhg. Dato’ Zainal Abidin bin Putih, who are independent of Management and free from any business relationship that could materially interfere with the exercise

of their independent judgement. The presence of Independent Directors assures an additional element of balance to the Board as they provide unbiased and independent views, advice and judgement to all Board deliberations. Y. Bhg. Tan Sri Dato’ Lau Yin Pin is the Senior Independent Non-Executive Director. He is the Company’s longest-serving Director with significant knowledge of the Company and its business, to whom any concerns on the Company may be conveyed by the shareholders and the public.

Re-election

Pursuant to Article 133 of the Company’s Articles of Association, newly-appointed Directors are subject to re-election by shareholders at the first opportunity after their appointment in accordance with Article 133 of the Articles of Association. Retiring Directors may offer themselves for re-election by the shareholders and all Directors are required to retire from office at least once in every three years in accordance with Article 135 of the Company’s Articles of Association.

Further information concerning the Directors standing for re-election at the Annual General Meeting is included in the Statement Accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting. The detailed profiles of directors submitted for re-election enable shareholders to make an informed decision on their election.

STATEMENT OF CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

(B) SHAREHOLDERS

TNB is committed to maintaining constructive relationships with shareholders in pursuing the highest standards of corporate governance practices throughout the Group, with full appreciation of the impact of good governance on long-term corporate performance and optimal shareholder value.

Relationship between the Company and Investors

TNB places great importance on company-investor relations as the Company aims to ensure the utmost satisfaction of its investors. The basis of this relationship is that the Company is to serve the legitimate interest of all investors with the utmost accountability, transparency and integrity at all times. In doing so, the Investor Relations and Management Reporting Unit (IRMRU), a dedicated unit under the Group Finance Division, is tasked with the responsibility to respond to all queries raised by shareholders and investors.

As part of the annual programme, IRMRU sets annual programmes to meet both local and international investment communities (both equity and fixed income) on a monthly basis. IRMRU also organises quarterly briefings and teleconference sessions with fund managers and analysts to announce the company’s financial results after each quarter’s announcements of financial results to Bursa Malaysia to address all the pertinent questions regarding the Company’s performance, corporate governance practices and other matters affecting shareholders’ interest.

The year under review also saw a significant 38 per cent increase in teleconference participants during analyst briefings compared to FY 2005, due to higher interest particularly from investors in Hong Kong and Singapore as well as interest from investors in the United Kingdom who had requested to participate in the teleconference sessions. Apart from the four teleconference sessions on TNB’s quarterly financial results, IRMRU also conducted an additional six teleconference sessions to address investors’ current issues with TNB.

IRMRU also arranged post-analyst briefings via teleconference sessions between top management and analysts to allow management to receive immediate feedback from investors.

For the benefit of all in the investing community, summaries of the financial quarter’s results are also published in daily newspapers.

During the year under review, TNB attended and participated in eight investor conferences and forums in London, Singapore, Hong Kong and Kuala Lumpur. IRMRU held and attended 101 meetings with both local and foreign investors and analysts as part of its efforts to maintain good rapport and relationships with TNB’s investors and analysts.

Information on the TNB Group which is up-to-date and fulfils the expectations of shareholders and stakeholders at large for satisfactory disclosure is made accessible through the website at www.tnb.com.my.

Constructive Use of the Annual General Meeting

The Annual General Meeting (AGM) is always the principal avenue for shareholders to communicate and engage in dialogue with the Board and Management of TNB. The highlights of the Company’s technical and financial performance are disclosed in a visual presentation by the Chairman and President/Chief Executive Officer at the AGM. The turnout of shareholders at general meetings of TNB has always been high. A total of 2,446 shareholders attended the Fifteenth AGM held in 2005.

TNB at all times encourages constructive dialogue between the Board and the shareholders, whereby at the AGM, shareholders exercise their voting rights and the meeting is convened in strict compliance with the laws and procedures of general meetings. Separate resolutions are proposed for separate motions and the Chairman declares the outcome of each resolution after proposal and secondment are done by the shareholders. Each item of ordinary and special business in the notice of the general meeting would be accompanied by a full explanation of the effects of any proposed resolution. Shareholders are given the opportunity to put forward their questions on the proposed resolutions and the Group’s operations. The Chairman will provide sufficient time for shareholders’ questions on matters pertaining to the Company’s performance and seek to explain to the shareholders their concern.

Immediately after the general meeting, the Chairman and the President/Chief Executive Officer will address all the issues raised by the press and analysts through a press conference and analyst briefing in the course of providing all stakeholders with the latest updates on the Company.

ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD 69

BOARD RESPONSIBILITY

The Board of Directors (“Board”) acknowledges and is committed to its responsibilities of maintaining Tenaga Nasional Berhad’s Group (“the Group”) system of internal control and reviewing its adequacy and integrity. The system is designed to meet the Group’s business objectives and safeguard shareholders’ investments, the interest of customers, regulators and employees, and the group assets. The internal control system covers the areas of risk management, finance, operations, management information systems and compliance with the relevant laws, regulations, rules, directives and guidelines. The system implemented encompasses the identification, assessment and management of the risks faced by the Group and provides a reasonable but not an absolute assurance, against material misstatement, loss or fraud.

The Board has established an on-going process for identifying, evaluating and managing the significant risks faced by the Group. The process is regularly reviewed by the Board and is in accordance with the Statement on Internal Control: Guidance for Directors of Public Listed Companies. More detailed information on the system of internal control is elaborated in the following paragraphs.

RISK MANAGEMENT

The Board has put in place an enterprise-wide risk management system to identify, assess, treat, report and monitor risks. This process is one of the Group’s key support processes and forms a part of TNB’s Corporate Quality Management System. The Board Audit Committee (BAC) reviews the effectiveness of this system bi-annually and is assisted by management in the review, treatment and monitoring of the Group’s strategic and operating risks. These reviews are presented to the Board for approval. Additionally, the following initiatives were also reviewed by the BAC and presented to the Board during the year:

• Streamlining risk management and business planning activities to ensure that controls and mitigation plans for risk management are built into the business plans and budgets of the Group.

• Reviewing key operating risks and in particular exposure to legal and fraud risks, and the development of action plans to mitigate these risks which include the establishment of the Tenaga Nasional Berhad (“TNB”) Code of Ethics and Whistleblowing Procedures which are currently being formulated.

STATEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL

• Refining the Emergency Response Plan (”the Plan”) which was started in the previous Financial Year. The Plan facilitates a prompt, coordinated and effective response to system related emergency situations to ensure resumption of supply to customers, protection of employees and assets, whilst minimising interruptions to business operations. Mock drills were also carried out to test the Plan and identify the gaps.

• Continuous communication and co-ordination of risk management activities in the Group through Risk Coordinators Forums held throughout the year.

• Review of the effectiveness of the risk management system at the station level by Group Internal Audit when performing planned audits of the stations.

CONTROL STRUCTURES

The Board is committed to maintaining an effective control structure and environment for the proper conduct of the Group’s business operations. The following key internal control structures were implemented to ensure an effective control environment: Board and Management Committees

Board and Management Committees were established by the Board to assist the Board to ensure the effectiveness of the Group’s operations and that the Group’s actions and operations are in accordance with approved strategies, objectives, business plans, and policies. The responsibilities and authority of the Committees are governed by specific terms of reference. These committees report to the Board and make recommendations for the Board’s approval.

Management Committees

Organisation Structure

The Board has approved a divisional structure for the Group. The divisional structure enables the division heads to focus on their assigned core areas of the Group’s operations or support functions. Additionally, with each division and operating entity, clear lines of accountability and responsibilities have been established. Limits of authority are also established to govern the management of financial and non financial approval limits.

The Board also reviews and refines the effectiveness of the Group and control structures to ensure that the Group’s strategic and operational requirements are met. During the year, a new reporting structure was instituted for financial officers to enable direct reporting and monitoring of financial performance and finance related matters to the Chief Financial Officer. Additionally, an accountability structure was refined for the Core Divisions (Generation, Transmission and Distribution) to facilitate effective budget utilisation and enhance related work processes.

Management Information Systems

The Board recognises the importance of the use of information and communication technology to provide efficient and effective control over business operations, and timely and accurate reporting to stakeholders. During the year, the systems and projects undertaken were as follows: • TNB Risk Information System (TRIS). The system enables the recording of risks, controls and tracking of mitigation

actions to manage risks. The first phase of the project was completed in August 2005, and the second phase was completed on 29 August 2006.

• e-Customer Information & Billing System (e-CIBS). This new system was developed to enhance Distribution Division’s customer

management and billings functions. The functionalities include customer service, financials, meter and billing and cross application support services. This system was rolled out in November 2005 and nation-wide roll out was completed in June 2006.

• Telecommunication Projects. These were carried out to mainly enhance, upgrade and improve the

transmission and telecommunication structures to support transmission, distribution and corporate functions.

Group Policies and Procedures

The Board has approved policies and procedures to govern the financial and operational functions of the Group. The objectives of these are to ensure that internal control principles and mechanisms are embedded in operations so that the organisation can respond quickly to evolving risks and procedures are available for immediate reporting of any significant control failings. Among others, the policies and procedures implemented are:

• Internal Control Guidelines• Group Financial Policies & Procedures• Safety & Health Policy• Environmental Policy• Investment Policy• Procurement Policy• Disciplinary Policy• Information and Communication Technology Security Policy and Codes of

Practice• Enterprise-Wide Risk Management Policy and Guidelines

STATEMENT ON INTERNAL CONTROL

Page 71: Annual Report TNB 2006

ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD 7�

During the year, TNB’s Corporate Office attained the International Standards Organisation (ISO) certification under the Process Standardisation and Improvement (PSI) Project which started in the previous year. The purpose of the project was to streamline, standardise, improve and document operating policies and procedures of the whole Group.

Special Engagement Against Losses

The Special Engagement Against Losses (SEAL) team continued with their efforts of reducing non-technical losses arising from the theft of electricity. Their efforts resulted in substantial amounts of back billing and collections. Additionally, for the first time, the Energy Commission with inputs from Tenaga Nasional Berhad had successfully convicted a company for the theft of electricity under Section 37(3)e of the Electricity Supply Act, 1990.

MONITORING AND REVIEW

Board Interactions With Management via Board Break Out Sessions

The Board plays an active role in breakout sessions held with management to discuss and review the plans, strategies, performance and risks faced by the Group. During the year, two breakout sessions were conducted. Concerns such as rising fuel costs, availability of gas supply to new power plants, high payments to Independent Power Producers (IPP)s, tariff revision timing and its impact on cashflow, generation and transmission performance, and other major factors faced were deliberated. Strategies and action plans were then reviewed and mandates were given to management by the Board to carry out the agreed strategies and action plans.

Business Planning And Budgeting Review

Business plans and budgets are aligned to the Group’s 20-Year Strategic Plan, to guide the organisation in achieving its vision of becoming among the leading corporations in the energy and related business globally.

Based on strategies identified in the Strategic Plan, 5-Year Business Plans and Annual Operating Plans together with Key Performance Indicators are drawn up and approved by the Board. This is to ensure accountability and achievement of the Group’s objectives and strategies. Strategies are also revised based on the changes in business and operating environments. Inputs from the Board Breakout Sessions are used to develop the 5-Year and Annual Operating Plans. The 5-Year Business Plan and Annual Operating Plan also contain the budget of the Company, to enable the Company to direct its resources toward the achievement of its financial objectives. Effective utilisation of the budget is attained through regular monitoring by management.

Financial and Operational Review

Quarterly financial statements and the Group’s performance are deliberated by the Board Audit Committee, who subsequently presents them to the Board for their review, consideration and approval. Monthly management accounts containing key financial results, operational performance indicators and budget comparisons are also issued to the Board and senior management to enable them to have regular and updated information of the Group’s performance.

STATEMENT ON

INTERNAL CONTROL

Page 72: Annual Report TNB 2006

72 ANNUAL REPORT 2006 TENAGA NASIONAL BERHAD

Group Internal Audit (GIA)

The Board established the GIA Department to provide independent assurance on the adequacy of risk management, internal control and governance systems. GIA reports to the Board Audit Committee. Regular reviews are carried out on the business processes to monitor compliance with the Group’s procedures, assess the effectiveness of internal controls and highlight significant risks impacting the Group. The Board Audit Committee (BAC) holds regular meetings to review internal audit reports, management actions and monitor the implementation of preventive and corrective actions for areas with significant and high risks. The scope of coverage by GIA includes the areas of generation, transmission, distribution, procurement and projects, finance, human resource, information and communication technology, investment in subsidiaries, and risk management and compliance.

Annual Audit Plans are presented to the Board Audit Committee for their review and approval. The review is to ensure adequacy of resources and sufficient coverage on significant and high risk areas. The audits in the Annual Audit Plans are mostly done internally, with some being outsourced or co-sourced. Outsourcing and co-sourcing of internal audits are done to enable adequate coverage and the transfer of knowledge from external consultants through co-sourcing.

CONCLUSION

For the Financial Year under review, some weaknesses in internal control were identified. However, after due and careful inquiry and based on the information and assurance provided, the Board is satisfied that there were no material losses as a result of weaknesses in the system of internal control, that would require separate disclosure in Tenaga Nasional Berhad’s Annual Report. Nevertheless, for areas requiring attention, measures have been and are being taken to ensure ongoing adequacy and effectiveness of internal controls and to safeguard shareholders’ investments and the Group’s assets.

This statement is made in accordance with the resolution of the Board of Directors dated 17 October 2006.

STATUTORY INFORMATION ON THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Before the income statements and balance sheets of the Group and of the Company were made out, the Directors took reasonable steps:

(a) to ascertain that proper action had been taken in relation to the writing off of bad debts and the making of allowance for doubtful debts and satisfied themselves that all known bad debts had been written off and that adequate allowance had been made for doubtful debts; and

(b) to ensure that any current assets, other than debts, which were unlikely to realise in the ordinary course of business their values as shown in the accounting records of the Group and of the Company had been written down to an amount which they might be expected so to realise.

At the date of this Report, the Directors are not aware of any circumstances:

(a) which would render the amounts written off for bad debts or the amount of the allowance for doubtful debts in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company inadequate to any substantial extent; or

(b) which would render the values attributed to current assets in the financial statements of the Group and of the Company misleading; or

(c) which have arisen which render adherence to the existing method of valuation of assets or liabilities of the Group and of the Company misleading or inappropriate.
